Moon - Trivia, Questions and Fun Facts

The "rescue mission" Sam is expecting is named Eliza. ELIZA was a 1960's computer program created by M.I.T. which mimicked chatting with a human operator in the manner of a therapist or psychologist. This is an obscure reference but obviously one pointed toward GERTY in the film. Its banal responses to Sam's statements and questions are very much in the manner which ELIZA used to provide.

The message containing the Eliza rescue crew manifest reads: "Lunar Industries rescue crews have your best intentions at heart. Please try not to panic until they arrive. Remain on-station and make sure you obey their instructions no matter how strange they may seem. After all, they're here to help! Thank you for helping us to help you."
